Ironbound Indoor Pool
The Sharpe James/Kenneth A. Gibson Recreation & Aquatic Center at 226 Rome Street features a heated indoor pool with adjustable depths plus locker rooms and fitness areas. The facility also maintains an indoor skating rink that stays open year-round, so there's always something to do regardless of the weather.
The free skating sessions and rental skates on site are great for families, though weekends can be busy. It's a fun way to stay active without leaving Newark, and the combination of swimming and skating makes it one of the city's best recreational hubs.
